Good Advice. Also on my lists, I usally SET listname NOPOST NOMAIL for vacationer Why? So when they return, they don't send stupid posts to the list asking: 1) is the list dead? 2) why did you set me to NOMAIL? 3) other off-topic post Somewhere along the line, they will contact the list-owner (listname-REQUEST) and ask/complain. This gives me an opportunity to explain why they were "busted" and in-general, why I despise vacation programs. Pete @ Penn State
